A products success d聽樂epends on many aspe議說cts. So the most important t匠相hing is that its functions are practi遠冷cal, reasonable price,愛場 popularity can not be do唱錢ne. Then this article will fi要務nd out more about the f哥國uture prospects of the wireles妹音s soft AP. I hope all o話吃f you help.
Network and board manufacturer著些s "war"
Earlier proposed土爸 the theory of soft AP software SAM 冷請launched SoftAP Ci黃海rcond, and Pctel (Am業但erican International Far但吧 session of the Science 錯些and Technology).去城
Pctel is the worlds leadin兒麗g wireless solutions and acces笑小s technology suppliers, the first comp外得elling product is all sof妹議t built-in cat. Pctel sales HSP ago 懂要has been the sale of "soft" cat, but P冷坐ctel company has been committed t雜就o the WLAN soft美男ware development, its main dir很去ection is to simplify the steps 嗎銀to configure and use Wi-Fi吧購. And Intel Corporat快拍ion have Wi-FI technology我上 developer PCTEL pai校錢d $ 14.5 million in order to get all風可 the right to use the Wi-Fi patent媽紙ed technology, which shows the stre票數ngth of the company是樹.
The PCTELs SAM Circond of體站 the launch of SoftAP products are very年工 similar, both allow黑關s a computer through wired broadband a媽市ccess to the Internet with Wi-F問會i (wireless LAN) card to wor數科k properly, they can become地相 a wireless access 紅的point, save expenditure on specializ些生ed wireless access point. The Circon雨歌d SoftAP need to be fi舊器tted with other computers in the comp厭厭uter as an access point外從 to connect to the access 草會point on the soft動站ware in order to form a n得高etwork, and the SA錯做M Pctel just for the access p懂拍oint on that comp通裡uter equipment soft音土ware, and the rest from m市就achine just to have a wireless card req件大uired.
The manufacturers introduced wir雨綠eless soft AP mostl這會y based on the t窗民heory of the two低風 products. The PCTEL the 討離SAM main sold to ODM, OEM and chi謝個p manufacturers, by SAM becomes t個白he standard of each Wi-Fi products,弟離 such as SIS (SiS)也金 SiS162 Wireless藍照 LAN PCTEL Segue 謝學Roaming Client software, co一會mpliant with the IEEE 802.11x和車 wireless specifications soft AP fun費妹ction.
But what really ful黃商l to the front of the concept of北多 wireless soft AP Asus and MSI拍校 board giant, both of which, not only 銀城in the field of motherboards and graph習兵ics cards is th錯知e worlds larges數朋t two-Pa, and wireless technology in t機舊he wireless products personalized, mot雪的herboards also at 票讀the forefront of the promotion.
For example, in addition to the mother農線board wireless soft AP products的光, ASUS has launched a seri家線es of new soft AP wireless network card空村, such as WL-107g, WL紙林-138G, etc. The ser能開ies is characterized by software 鐘放simulation of your computer armed B笑業ecome a wireless soft作海 AP support WDS and NAT function.分場
MSI 54G series wireless c作事ommunication prod要腦ucts CB54G2, PC54G2 also have a s輛遠imilar function, thes農生e two products are supported under視對 Windows XP the拍老 soft AP / routing.
But we can see that the motherboard ma日們nufacturers keen on soft AP, the費中 traditional networ微章k vendors, mostly indiffe電自rent. Pay more attention to the 電微reality of the traditional 來麗network vendors in到站 the eyes, in the face of 答嗎the motherboard manufactur理拍ers menacing Fo短他r the impact of the 亮訊traditional network mark多媽et wireless soft AP, most of the tradi跳媽tional network v白現endors in order to take on the 業下function and the mar國明ket with wireless AP is not 都務optimistic about the .
Key key price
While traditional networking ve算門ndor is not optimistic abou白我t the wireless soft A了也P, but did not affect the光鄉 enthusiasm to promote懂數 the motherboar湖路d manufacturers such a資又s Asus, MSI wireless soft AP. With th東歌ese first-tier manufacturers to th司物e motherboard onboard wireless prod車那ucts to promote a strong, launched in m章和ore soft AP feature w年著ill be the Main Board 紙筆of the other mot體能herboard brand manufacturers as an 哥刀important new features. But a real imp錯上act with soft AP feature 能風a separate wireless ca窗朋rd in the market to個女 promote the main factor is price紅見.
For example, with soft A靜姐P function MSI CB54G2 wir火能eless network ca商土rd, its market guide price is 280間冷 yuan, such a price c很劇lose to the more長得 expensive half similar wireless LAN森讀 products than tradition內機al network vendors. Compared wit也跳h a number of lo家來w-cost wireless AP / router p睡她roducts, which 電兒do not have the cos市相t advantage, D-Link, TP-Li弟暗nk and other manuf好醫acturers of low-cost wireless ro街湖uter the price has dropped to畫上 around $ 300 in terms of performanc地玩e or are significan紙學tly higher than the convenience of wire河路less soft AP produc報化ts.
So, placed in the是土 front of the card m店服anufacturers independent wireless Sof畫技t AP to the road is stil美動l a long way to go. 紅輛Of which the most crucial point of its 南裡products in order to get mo筆線re recognition is necessary in pr票制ice can be suppressed traditional ne放匠tworking vendor wire開街less LAN products.
After the words
Here we describe how 能來soft AP not want to negate it or t票去outed it. As a new concept, the pres關飛ence of both a reasonable, ordin雪木ary wireless network card can als說分o have the same function, 日國there is no deny來呢ing the soft AP also its ease of 年熱use. Although the traditional network舞少ing vendor is no業件t optimistic abou資員t the wireless soft AP, but al理關so does not mean t購嗎hat its a stick 花黑killed. As a matur慢麗e consumers, we look at this sort of t討嗎hing should be 現放more rational, soft AP means reasona藍計ble, especially for parti嗎坐cularly in the fiel的小d of motherboar飛劇d onboard.
Of course, for wireless soft業日 AP, most should 好志be emphasized that pric就下e, the price is that it would like to w地好in the most critical factors 船都for success in the market. We can see t車讀hat both the in從都dependent soft AP or請人 onboard soft AP, an中國d its products are in the basic price 道樹of a lack of co但有mpetitiveness. 吃請So, for motherboard manufact笑歌urers, in order to wireless soft AP inh到些erent in the traditional networ快服k vendors market success, most 場站in need of more in this村為 regard to work har個話d.
In addition, compared w化愛ith ordinary wireless card, soft AP d花聽river / software integra和得tion for early access to the Internet u白近sers to provide the soft AP i暗區nstall a lot of ease of u好這se, the primary 資匠users do not need to do this 房可particular study knowledge o雜計f LAN network, simply follow 北在the instructions a step-by-step "Ne影森xt" will be able to complete the輛花 configuration of the wirele算章ss soft AP. For the novice or ve明朋ry positive.
In short, such as wireless sof飛子t AP for primary users a在村nd the price-conscious user民業s with an alternative solution, b家近ut it is to be truly welcomed by th道少e users still need to m就藍ake more efforts on the "bench" pa光費rty line.
